This whole thing was silly, how can they have this whole presser and it be completely void of anything interesting outside of the fact SC2 will somehow be associated with Kespa?

"Personally, I feel honoured to stand before 12 teams of GSL. I think SC2, since the release in 2010, had made a historical impact to the new form of eSports. eSports of SC2 had gained popularity and I had experienced in firsthand at each foreign tournament I attended. Learning SC2 was not an easy thing to do, but I did so with joy. I thank you to the four organizations for making this possible, and I wish for them to support the players."


July didn't say much of substance but he does sound like the most natural upstage.

What was the process that lead everyone to come to this agreement?

What a waste of a question.

Thank goodness for the TLLIVE Live Report coverage in the OP.

I'm trying to read through this thread to get a better understanding of things and it's more confusing than anything.

I'm hoping that an official write-up eventually gets posted in a new thread when the smoke clears (the dust settles? whatever) and we can make heads or tails of everything that's been said.

In the mean time: F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5.

There's nothing new. They've pretty much just confirmed what we already know.

- KeSPA, OGN, Blizzard and Gretech will be working together to promote SC2 and esports in Korea
- Next season PL will have SC2 in it (NO clarification if it's half BW/half SC2 as rumored)
- KeSPA officially sanctions SC2
- OGN and KeSPA get rights to broadcast and host SC2 tournaments.

I think that's implied by the fact that they're, you know, businesses...

Hybrid BW/SC2 TT_TT

BW doesn't live. This means we'll have a crippled/handicapped BW as all players will focus more on SC2 (except those in OSL), but even they will have to practice SC2 for the eventual transition. BW on life-support is not the BW I desire
